How did you mount the LOD license Plate relocation bracket?
How did you mount the LOD license Plate relocation bracket?
Hey. So with the XRC Gen 2 rear bumper, there is a steel plate in the driver corner with some threaded bolts on it. If you get the lod bracket and remove the two upper left bolts of the steel plate, you can line the lod bracket up into the threaded back of the xrc bumper and thread that bolt you just removed into the lod bracket. You may have to grind the lod bracket in the corner to make room for the other xrc bumper bolt you removed. I removed just enough for the second bolt to just clear the lod bracket and then put a washer and nit to hold it to the lod bracket. The lod bracket fits so tight that there’s no way it’s going to wiggle or rattle off the xrc bumper. Then attach the bumper to the frame and the lod plate will snug right up to the body of the Jeep. If that one bolt wasn’t lined up just right on the lod bracket it would hav been a pain to fabricate a bracket to that angle to make it work.

Also tried to install a AEV ProCal Snap into my wife’s Gladiator. That was a fail. One of the delicate wires that plug into the back of the OBD2 port broke. Don’t like that thing, shouldn’t have ordered. Going to order a Tazer Mini for her like I have.


Not happy about your issue, but glad I'm not the only one. Epic fail here. Guess that's what I get for trying to save a few bucks!!!! :facepalm:
tazer mini is super easy to install, and i have had no issues with it.. love it

@Rugged Ridge headlight and taillight guards + Brawlee light bar. I was excited to share one of the first RGB Brawlee installs but I discovered a problem with it and Brawlee/Done Right LED decided to pull the RGB line until they figured out the problem. Just my luck

Did you break a wire too, or just didn’t like the thing?

Ordered up my Tazer JL Mini and 275/70/R18 KO2s before winter arrives. Went to put in the new Gladiator grill inserts to discover, once more, my trim tool kit was mislaid. Found it behind my toolbox after it was too dark to work on it tonight.

It's expensive...more than I anticipated.

1850 for 5 tires(37 KO2s)
290 for spare mounting bracket
660 for tailgate reinforcement
140 to mount
145 to flash
130 for Mopar contract

= $3215 (ouch)
That's steep...are you going to upgrade the tie rod and draglink? What about regearing to get performance back close to stock?

Got the radio replaced after it rebooted and hung for 48 hours, and *V41 recall done.
